Applications for Reception

Applications for Reception places are made through the Bradford Council Admissions process. Please apply for a place at our school through Bradford Council's Admissions website. 

Children who attend the Nursery provision at The Academy at St. James will not receive an automatic place in reception and must apply through the Local Authority as normal. An additional supplementary information form MUST also be completed for those applying for a school place within the Faith Proportion. The supplementary information form must be returned to the school office.

If you would like to arrange a visit to our school, we would be happy to show you around.

Our School’s Admissions Policy is available on the BDAT website.
